What I can't understand is the people who were bashing Nintendo Land before it was announced that it was going to be included in the deluxe, but now they are acting as if it's stupid to go with the basic because it comes with a game that's going to be dirt cheap in no time. I mean, are you really going to even use 8GB any time soon? I doubt there will be much worthy DLC for a while and when there is you always have the option to upgrade far beyond 32GB for probably even cheaper than the extra cost of the deluxe. I'm just saying, do a lot of people really even want to play Nintendo Land? Just give it some thought.

I'm actually genuinely interested in the game to be honest, but it sucks that you have to go with black to get it, I can see that thing being a fingerprint magnet.

It's more of a value thing. For $50 more you get a game, quadruple the space, more accessories, and 2 years of premium online service. That's ridiculous for only $50 more. Obviously to someone who doesn't want Nintendo Land or plans to not connect online...maybe the $50 isn't something they want to spend.

I'm kind of the opposite, i really want the black console but i don't want the game, and paying a higher price simply for the colour is something i don't know if i want to do.

It's not that, it's the fact that it comes with the Nintendo Premium, and all the cradle accessories and stuff. It's worth the extra £50 IMO.

I'm going with the Zombi U bundle anyway, which doesn't come with NintendoLand, but I'm undecided if I want NintendoLand now or not, so it doesn't matter.

If it has online multiplayer, which I hope someone can tell us nearer the time, I will probably get it, as I want something that most people will have, to play with them online, but if it's only LAN multiplayer, then it's not worth me buying it.

Nintendo Land has already been confirmed to have local multiplayer only

Ah thanks. Not worth me picking it up on launch day then.

For me personally, I want the Black colour, I want the extra memory without having to stick my external HDD next to it, taking up more room. I want all those accessories, and I don't have a sensor bar.

Damn, ninja'd.

I figure that, with all the extra stuff that you get at the cost of Nintendoland stand alone, it's possibly worth it. I don't know how much of the stuff I'll actually make use of, but it's there and I don't have to whine about it later, however minimal it is.

Yup.

[x-SourApple-x]

Can someone also confirm that the Zombi U bundle, comes with the cradles and such, and just has the Zombi U game and pro controller as extra?

Yeah, the black system is huge for me...but premium online is huge to...I plan on using eshop a lot...I want most the launch titles...I figure though...even if premium service only costs like $10 a month...That's $240 packed in...on top of a game..and more for $50 ..That's epic value.

Precisely!

According to this, Nintendo of Europe (so not GAME) clarified that it's basically the Premium Bundle in its entirety, except that Nintendoland was removed and ZombiU and the Pro Controller were added. So all the other components should be in it.

This is how i look at it:
Extra 24gb - won't matter to me because i don't download games
Charging Cradle - could be useful
Gamepad Stand - why do i need a cradle and a stand? seems stupid
Console Stand - i want the console horizontal so it's useless
Nintendo Land - never really liked party/mini games
2 Year Subscription - yet again it's useless because i don't download games
Black Console - is a big plus since it looks extremely nice

So am i going to pay an extra $80AUD for the black console and a cradle? I really don't know.

Well then, get a basic bundle and some black undercoat + overcoat that doesn't eat the plastic. Problem solved!

I don't know, there are benefits to getting a white wii u, it will pick up less fingerprints and dust. It's more practical but it doesn't look as nice as the black one.

Yeah, I'd be a whole lot happier if it was a matte finish, would be more comfortable to hold as well in my opinion.

Cheers! Just wanted to double check, before I found out that something was taken out of the bundle as well xD

Also, Demon, you could sell all the accessories and Nintendo Premium on for profit. Just because you pay extra, doesn't mean you won't earn extra If you want the Black bundle, I would say go for it, especially when you can trade the game in as well for about $90 AUD. The game is going for a FULL brand new game price tag at the moment.

Nintendoland is cruising for about $78

The glossy finish looks great but it's just not practical, at least the back of the gamepad is matte.

I should probably do that, i wonder what the trade in value will be for the game, i could even try selling them on Ebay.

Yep, but chances are in a few months you'll be seeing it for 20.
